Title: [Postoperative asystole caused by malfunction of an external demand pacemaker during hemofiltration]. Author: Klepzig H, Aumüller M, Kreuzer J, Baldamus C, Krause E, Kappos AD, Kaltenbach M. Journal: Z Kardiol; 1985 Feb; 74(2):130-1. PubMed ID: 3887786. Abstract: We report on a 54-year-old patient with chronic renal failure, in whom complete AV block occurred after aortic valve replacement. During hemofiltration an external demand pacemaker sensed spikes induced by the employed machine. This caused an asystole. Fixed rate pacing re-established regular ventricular contractions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
